Course description
Whether you're reporting for traditional or emerging platforms, broadcast journalism requires specialised skills to tell engaging factual stories for digital platforms. In this course, you'll apply the journalistic foundations to audio and video journalism, learning how to report, script, narrate, produce, edit and distribute radio and TV news packages and short-form audio and video documentaries.
